Check first for draughts and then decide
intuitively whether there is a pattern to the
flaring and guttering. If you are performing the
spell with someone in mind, you may feel the
recipient of your spell is trying to block your
efforts. Sit quietly for a while until you feel you
have grasped the significance of the pattern,
which may be because the spell itself is not
right for the time. In this case simply be
prepared to try again another time
